Watching for things that might be creeping
Hitting my toe on something in the dark
Climbing back in bed with throbs of pain.
Tossing and turning, rocking and rolling
Waiting for sleep to finally come
Checking the clock to see if its later
Or if it just feels like night has begun.
Its winter and thats why it is so cold
Not enough blankets to cover the chill
Maybe if I get up to eat something
It will help me fall asleep, I doubt it
Last but not least all the thoughts of the day
Come marching through the mind like a war
Getting run over by thoughts of tomorrow
Why should I worry, its coming at last.
Oh its daylight I see and I must have slept
The last time I looked at the time it was one
Thank God for the rest to carry me through
He has promised to give me just what I need

Watch the spelling of "its"--when it is a contraction (meaning "it is") it needs an apostrophe.
